Description Neil Kandalgaonkar 2010-12-30 02:13:11 UTC IE6 complains that the 'abort' property doesn't exist on the XMLHttpRequest object. Curiously, the usual methods of circumventing this don't work. Comment 1 Neil Kandalgaonkar 2010-12-30 02:15:46 UTC The problem is caused by a very strange nonstandard behaviour of IE6: typeof req.abort === 'unknown'. Fixed in r79226.
